How to Apply for a Nevada Identification Card

Updated on Thu, 4/28/2011

The Nevada Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) issues non-driver identification cards to State residents who don't have a valid ID card, driver license or instruction permits from the State or any other jurisdiction. The ID card can be used to prove your identity, age, and residence in a variety of situations. The identification card is valid for four years and expires on your birthday.

APPLYING FOR A NEVADA ID CARD

Locate the DMV Full Service Office nearest to you, as you will have to apply for the ID card in person. You cannot apply online.

Bring proper identification. Please note that DMV Nevada does not accept out of state driver's licenses or ID cards as valid proof of identification.

You must also provide proof of your social security number (SSN). If you have never been issued a SSN, you may be required to obtain one, or else sign a Statement of Not Eligible for Social Security Number form.

Pay the ID card application fee which is $11.25 for individuals above 18 years.

You must also surrender any valid driver license or instruction permit issued by the state of Nevada.

RENEWING A NEVADA ID CARD

An ID card issued by the Nevada DMV is valid for four years. It expires on your birthday in the fourth year after it was issued. The DMV mails you a renewal notice and application form thirty days prior to expiry. Four yearly renewals can be carried out online or via mail. However, every eight years you will have to renew in person at the nearest DMV office.
Renewing the ID card in person:

Visit the nearest DMV office with the required fees, your identification card and the renewal notice/form that you received in the mail.
